In the guest room, the food on the table had been completely devoured by Ellie. Her belly was round and full, and her face radiated pure satisfaction.
"I'm stuffed. Thanks for letting me have all the food," she said, patting her stomach.
"Oh, don't mention it," Chris and the others replied with warm smiles, shaking their heads.
Seeing their kindness, Ellie felt even more touched. In a world where supplies were so scarce, they still chose to give their food to her. Her eyes welled up again, emotions threatening to spill over.
But just then, Sean let out a mischievous chuckle and turned to Ethan. "Hey, Ethan, she's full now. Go ahead and bring out the good stuff we saved for ourselves."
"Huh???" Ellie's touched expression froze, her face going blank.
What the hell did he mean by that?
